Breakthrough moment for Polish golfers
After three rounds of play at Ireland’s Mount Juliet Estate, Poland are the independent leaders. The situation at the top of the table changed little last Sunday, but Poland’s best golfer continues to lead. He won by a total of 268 strokes (-20 against the court norm).
– It’s hard to explain in words, I’m very happy. It’s an amazing feeling, but also a huge relief that finally, after years of hard work every day, this moment has come. I’m not slowing down, this is the next step in my career – he said just after leaving the eighteenth hole.
The second place went to Ryan Fox of New Zealand with a result of -17, and third place went to Thriston Lawrence of South Africa with a result of -16.
Victory will advance in ranking
Meronk will move up to seventh in the DP World Tour Ranking and will also be promoted to the Official World Golf Ranking.
The 29-year-old from Wrocław has made three podiums in the DP World Tour series this season. In May he finished third at the Dutch Open and Catalunya Championships, in March at the Qatar Masters he was also bottom of the podium. In September 2021, he finished second at the DS Automobiles Italian Open, when the series was still called the European Tour.
In each competition he is accompanied by a caddy – Stuart Beck from Scotland.
The Irish Open is a tournament with a long tradition – it was played for the first time in 1927. It was held every year until 1950, except during the Second World War. It was played in 1953, and then there was a long hiatus. Competition resumed in 1975.
